You make some good points Desode. Being a console gamer before PC & if I had a choice to sit up at a pc desk for the evening, or from the comfort of the living room & a 42" screen, I know which basket I'd put my eggs in.
I felt I needed to merely express my disappointments after reading everything in the couple years that led up to release; I was so looking forward to a console-based IL-2 experience. The selling point was always about the game appealling to a Sim fan aswell as the arcade guys. I guess I took replays, take-offs, flyby cameras, cockpits, flight stick playability, cheat-proof MP's for granted in this title because of its illustrious lineage.
I'd like to think of my opinions as more than that of a whining child, especially after having spent so much money on good console games in the past & even shelling out on both 360 & PS3 versions of this game.
I agree with your points all the same & I guess we should all back an attempt to help a "dying breed" of sim games; it's just an expensive way of doing it; buying a title for 40 quid & waiting til they get it right with BoP2; another £40.
